thank you so much bro, in my case i think that the curtain was locked, i tested the motor and was working, put all together and it is alive again, thanks bro
@@Gabson9 yes i disassembly all. Than opened the curtain by hand. I feel it little locked so i tough was that. Cuz i tested the motor with 5v and worked fine. So that was the issue. If the curtain does not open the camera cant turn on. The curtain press a switch that says. Its open so turn on

hi there, i have model SLT A33, what is demounted from 06:00 until 06:20 because i don't have that part and i'm just curious if it's only with newer model or is that part necessary? Thanks for the video!
Good morning nice video of the sony a37 if I'm not wrong? I wanted to know what step you took with the probe connected to the machine what is it for? At that point are there smd capacitors to download? I'd like to see his video to the end including repairing the sciutter if possible Thank you I kindly await your reply thanks
Hey! At 0:18 you highlight two drill holes above the viewfinder. On my a55 those whole are covered with an additional layer, it looks like your was too? Just wondering if yours had holes already there where the screws were or if you had to drill through that extra layer to reveal the screws. That top part above the viewfinder appears to be the only thing stopping me from pulling the backside body off. The video is much appreciated and has helped a ton! Thank you!
@@mykcameracamcorderrepairse7816 Any best techniques/tools for removing the "sticker"? I am not sure if "sticker" would be the wording a would you, maybe a thin plastic layer that is extremely difficult to remove haha. Thanks for the quick response, will try removing now!
Hello MYK Camera: I have 2 Sony a-mount Cameras. #1 is a Sony a33 which all of the function Buttons on the back plate do not work. And for the other camera my Sony a65 the Flip screen does not work it will function if I move the screen around then it comes on temporally. Any advise?
Thanks for the video. I have an a6000 with shutter stuck closed. I turn cam on and hear the shutter motor whine for 2 seconds and then camera error message. cant turn cam off, have to remove battery. From seeing other vids, one guy had a small piece of metal stuck in the gear, removed it and that was it. Do my symptoms sound like the same issue? it's as if the gears are turning but not actuating the shutter. Also if i have to relace the part, not sure if its the shutter unit or the more expensive MB charge unit behind it which seems to inclde the motor?
It could simply be the aperture ring behind the lens mount is stuck or out of alignment. It was on my a58. The same camera still won't auto-focus yet but it does not "error" on aperture changes that require the same restart as you do.
My A33 just hit me with the "Camera Error" last night and after several attempts to revive it, I've declared it officially dead. Having found a source for a new Shutter Charge Motor (BTW, the part link in your description above is no longer valid) I'm going to attempt repairs with help from your video. I'll watch the video and make sure I can get my camera apart before ordering the part but first I have to ask...what is the device you clip on to the motor contacts at the 3:40 mark? Thanks in advance.
@@mykcameracamcorderrepairse7816 Could you please tell me if this motor is also compatible with SLT-A58? My A58 has the same problem and I want to fix it myself. Where can I get the shutter mottor for A58? Thanks in advance
DO NOT start by taking the whole device apart. The error can be caused by the aperture ring in the lens mount being stuck or out of alignment. I tried to replace the plastic lens mount ring on my a58 with the metal one off my a330. I sold the a330 with the issue of the aperture not working but no error. The a58 still has a piece missing from the lens mount area and won't autofocus correctly but I fixed the camera error/restart issue. so far, just by putting the aperture ring in with the correct alignment.
I opened my sony a77 after almost a year and it turned on then alpha logo showed and i had to set location and time zone , everything seems to be fine but after a few seconds it shut down and won't turn on,,i kept my camera without battery in a airtight box with some silica gel,, charged battery fully before using it,but it shut down and wont turning on,,when i turn on switch some red light is popping beside card slot and there is no information in display,,what could be the problem?
hi MYK, my sony a57 has intermittent power on problem, reset all setting will make the problem disappear for a while, sometime it will take 10 to 50 minutes to turn it on, do you have any idea why this happens? i check the battery and contact, battery is in good condition and i already check with multi meter and load testing, i clean the contact with vinegar, but same problem.
The shutter motor is the most common cause of the power issue and "camera error" message. This is the motor for your camera, encompass.com/item/9226854/Sony/A-1837-338-A/
Hello, I have seen your tutorial and I found it very cool, congratulations. But I have a question. I own an A55 and it is not starting any more. When this happened the first time, a quick error message appeared and hung up and never worked again. Nothing happens when we try to start it. Do you know if changing this engine solves this problem?
Hey. Thanks for this tutorial. I'm just curious if by "or Dead" you mean that the camera simply will not power on no matter what trickery is performed. This is the case with my camera. I've opened it to see if everything looks good, and it does. Can't see any trace of damage from moisture, the boards and cables look good.
I wanted to replace the Lithium battery inside which keeps the date-time. Just wanted to know what type of battery is inside? CR2032? Thank you. EDIT: After some research, I came to know that its not a battery but a super cap.
@@mykcameracamcorderrepairse7816 thank you!! great news my camera has the same issue some people told that if you use an after market baterry it will repair so i ordered one and i wait if there is no success ill just order a motor do you just fit it in and solder the 2 points in the top?
Hey MYK Camera Camcorder Repair Services, thanks for the great to video, I installed the new motor on my a33 and my camera came back to life!!! however the buttons on the back seem to do different things then they used to, is it possible the motor damaged the main board? I rechecked all my connections and they appear good. thanks
That's very unfortunate. there's a chance the motor blows the power circuit in the m/b but not the button circuits. I guess you have 2 options, unplug the cable (blue one?) and plug back in. the other option is replace it. sorry to say that.
@@mykcameracamcorderrepairse7816 thanks, I will try reattaching the blue cable. Do you know the part number for the button portion is if I need it? Thanks

Hello my friend i have a sony A37 suddenly turned off ... and turn it on again apacere an error that says ... Camera's hurt ... can I repair it with that answer my friend? Thanks jose medina honduras.
@@mykcameracamcorderrepairse7816 No, is same. I have a Sony A450, ans slt 55, is identical. The contact i have from minolta. Lot camera with alpha mount is identical on mount contact.
What if my Sony A57 takes beautiful pictures (and videos), no exposure problems, no weird shadows or lines in photos, but after each photo Camera Error pops up on the screen and I must restart the camera? Of course, after every restart, I could take only one photo -> Camera Error appears again. Previous captured photo can be played back properly. Autofocus works very well, aperture control is spot on, everything else seems just right. Camera gives the error with or without lens, with or without memory card.
Aperture gear and ring just behind the lens could be out of whack. My a58 was doing so and that was the cure. A piece went flying across the room and my AF keeps hunting but the aperture error/restart seems cured for the most part
@@mykcameracamcorderrepairse7816 I would like to see the inside of the Sony SLT mirror box for the 65/57/58 because I swear I am missing a piece and the repair manuals are great for showing the full camera exploded views but the cannot show how they go back.

Likewise camera error..
What should I do?
Somebody tell me please
It could be the shutter unit or shutter drive motor.
Aperture gear and ring just behind the lens could be out of whack. My a58 was doing so and that was the cure. A piece went flying across the room and my AF keeps hunting but the aperture error/restart seems cured for the most part
